#91 - The Beatles In Canada II - The Decca Tapes Mystery Examined
Tuesday Mar 25, 2025
Tuesday Mar 25, 2025
The news that a high quality copy of the Beatles 1/1/62 Decca Tapes Audition had surfaced in Canada started a lot of commentary and speculation among fans, social media and radio DJs on just what had been discovered. This episode of Beatles News Briefs does a deep dive and investigates this story by going to the source with interviews of the three men who found and have listened to the tape - Rob Frith of Neptoon Records, Larry Hennessey of Reel To Reel To Digital.com and Doug Shober, host of the music blog Noise From the Cranium -- who describe the tape and tells what they have. We also have statements from three renowned Beatles experts - Bruce Spizer, Piers Hemmingsen and Mark Lewisohn - on what the Canadian tape might be. And yours truly gives his comments to one of the songs on the tape which we heard in its entirety. It's the first real answers to the question of what this tape is and what this all means. And we would love to hear your comments. Send them to BeatlesNewsBriefs@gmail.com. And please subscribe and review our show. You can contact Steve at that email address or join him on Facebook on his Beatles News and Information page, with all the latest Beatles News and information, as the title says. Be seeing you.
